The 2 main characters go through a reformation of the kind peculiar to them. The main character, V, reconsiders his rage and desire for violence, reconsiders his life agenda BECAUSE he experiences love for the first time in his life. Today this is a word that is blatantly deployed in all contexts while preventing people to understand the motives. It has layers, it has romance, it carries the idea, it involves fantastic, talented actors, it gives people important things to ponder over. Now, as for the story and implementation. The question is whether an underaged is able of realizing the depth and the aesthetic of the story. And again, it's not about the violence or rape attempt. So, judging for what age group this film is appropriate is really individual. It will impress, for sure, I watched this movie when I was 19 and it left an imprint on my psyche, but, again, the Internet today is full of shit and kids, with every next generation get old and mature way faster than kids from every previous generation. Yes, they might not yet be capable of comprehending the depth of the story due to the insufficient life experience and the immature sense of judgement, however, a properly educated 12 year-old growing up in an educated family will not be traumatized by 'violence'. A properly developed 12-year old is capable to understand the basic concepts of rights and rules. Violence is spoken a lot about but as if today there's no compelling or otherwise sufficient scientific evidence proving that movies with violence contribute to kids or teens to become violent. It explores the actions people take (supporting it, accepting it or resisting it or fighting against it). Ultimately, it's a political film about extreme governments and their players: from the head of the government on down public workers.

Some of it is generalized, like what you would see in any action film or video game with guns, and some of it is up close (the context is revenge), so, its disturbing, but not gory (some blood, no guts). Showing this in the political context is important. The torture is emotionally intense, but limited. There isn't any on-screen sexual violence, but the threats of it are present, as in real life. (But if your child is interested in these topics he/she may really enjoy it.)Ģ)Sexual violence/Torture. Themes that might be harder for kids under 14 to understand.

That said, I would recommend it for older teens for the following reasons:ġ)Complicated politics: involving corruption, intrigue, sabotage.

The photography, dialogue, intrigue, action, musical score and special effects are excellent.
